Farmers Can Raise Their Own Trout,

Farmers Gan RAISE Ihe1r own Trout
It is much easier, says Seth Green, to
stock a stream than to raise fish in
ponds, because the young fish will take
care of themselves much better than
anyone can take care of them, and if
they are protected from danger until
they are about forty-five days old
which is aboit the time the fish culturist
takes charge Of them-until they are
ready to iced, they are then tolerabIy
able to look out for themselves.
In stocking stream with trout. the
young fish should be taken to its head
wa ers, or put into the springs an little
rivulets which empty into it. As they
grow larger. they will gradually settle
down stream, and run up again to the
hea water III the fall and winter to
spawn.
Wnen putting fish into a stream, do
not put them suddenly into water much
warmer than that of the vessel in which
they have been transported. They will
not be SO likely to be injured by putting
them in water u few degrees colder; but
try to avoid all sudden changes, and
gradually raise or lower the temperature
of the water in which you bring them,
until it is even with that of the stream
in which they are to be placed.
Perhaps, in no branch Of fish culture
are the results more immediate, or more
apparent, than in restocking streams

Twin Blessings.

A gentleman who was present at Nell
son Court recently related the following
to us:
The efficient sheriff was wanted in
courG, but could not be found, although
diligent search was made for him.
After a time, however he put in his
appearance. and leaning over the har,
whispered something to enc OF the legal
fraternity, Whereupon that gentleman
arose and informed the court that the
sheriff had just been presented with
twins by his wife, and moved that his
Honor make an appropriation for
them.
The Judge turned to the clerk, and in
structed him to enter an appropriation
of ten dollars each for them.-[ Lynch

was young in those days. oh, my dar-
ling,
With tiny fair heads at my knee;
We were young in the sweet summer
weather.
On warm, golden sands by the sea;
Yet there, in the sweet solemn twilight,
A dream came to me.
The small heads on pillows were lying.
And bright eyes were dark in eclipse;
The gay crimson peoples of dreamland
We're pressed to the innocent lips,
And you, on the wet sands, were watch
ing
Dim phantoms of ships.
I thought, as they passed like vision,
And slowly sailed out in the night,
How swiftly the years would glide on
ward
And bear the wee ones from our sight,
And leave US but grave men and wo-
To struggle and fight.
I heard the soft words of the lovers
The old words that ever are new;
The dear home was dreary and empty,
Save, darling, for me and for you.
But crept to your heart in my weep
ing,
So tried and so true.
am old in these days, oh, my darling!
Too old for the world and its ways;
I sit all alone in the twilight,
And watch the oak logs as they blaze.
"She's growing so old, the dear motheri p
The sweet daughter says.
My darling, the home nest is empty;
watched every bird as it flew;
The whole world is empty and dreary,
Bereft of the one love so true.

And long, DEAR for you.

GETTING EVEN WITH HIM.
The Parsons Bad Hair-Cutting Very APPLY
Rebuked-An Improved Crop.

Away down in Maine, in a region where
the usages remain as primitive as they
are anywhere in the United States, there
is an aged parson who peri rms not only
the ordi airy clerical duties, preaching to
the people of the district and marrying
and burying them, but also turns an
honest penny by cutting their hair on
occasion.
The old parson isn't exactly an artist
In this line, and is distressingly absent
minded, but there is no barber anywhere
in the leighborhood, and nobody there
cares much about Parker House cut,
anyway.
One day Lie Jones, an old codger and
jack at all trades of the neighborhood,
came to the parson to get his hair cut,
and the parson, who was evidently edi-
tatin-s to deeply his next Sundays SER
mon to note what he was doing, cut the
hair in most phenomenally ragged and
irregular style.
In som places he had shorn the hair
down to the scalp, and in others left it
almost untouched, SO that when he had
finished his absent-minded task his sub
jects he d ad a weird and unkempt
look that was wonderful to behold.
"What shall I pay We, parsonF he'd
asked.
80. come and NOW the hazel brush
out back f the house tomorrow" said
the parson.
When Lie got home his wife eA-
claimed:
Mercy on me! what you been
a-doing?'
''Gittin' ny hair cut" said Lie.
Laws Il me- if the parson didn't do
purity job this time, said she, "then
there amt II, truth in reyelationr
Mkt day the parson had q funeral to
atteni to. and when he got home he
70 .nd the inan whose hair lie had cut the
day .et re just leaving the place.
He had moved the hazel bti,-i So that
in orc spot taetops had just b''e. moved
of III atl.t.ter it was cut hatt gay t:CEn
in another moved to the gro i... and IN
another torn up by the roots L wa
the sorriest-looking field that anybody
ever saw.
..Why, declarer' said the parson.
"What nave you been doing?"
"iIowin' the hazel,' said Lie.
"AIowin' it? You've been manglin'
it, said the parson.
Lie simply took off his hat, and pre-
scented his chaotic crown to the parsons
gaze.
"Well, WE'LL" said he; "did I do
that? Well, come into the house, and
I'll cut it for you"
The parson did the best work that he
could this time, considering the havoc
he had made the day before. and when
he had finished Lie Jones took up his
bush scythe again and-went home

Report of the Chief of the Secret Service
Division.

Report of the Chief of the Secret Service
Division.
WASHINGTON, D. c., December THE
annual report of the chief of the secret SER
vice division of the treasury wos made pub
lie to-day. 1t shows that tbers were 355
persons arrested by the officers of the ser
vice during the past fiscal year for violation of
the laws against counterfeiting. etc. Of this
number seventywere convicted and sentenced
to imprisonment. The report says that the
counterfeiting now being done is principally
the work of Italians, who operate in bands
in different portions of the country. The
counterfeiting done during the past year
amounts practically to nothing, the only at
tempt in that direction being $40 silver
certificate and 81 silver certificate, and
these were such poor limitations as to be
practically harmless. sThe report refers to
the fact that all but two of the many skilled
operators arrested since the war for counter
feiting United States bonds, are now at iber-
ty, and says they may be expected to resume
their nefarious operations at any time.
The report attributes the scarcity of coun-
terfeit money to excellence of the work
done at the bureau of engraving and print
ing, and to the almost certainty of punish
ment Of the offenders.

CONGRESSIONAL.

WASHINGTON, d. c., December AFTER
the presentation of various communications
from the heads of departments and court OF
claims Mr.. Cullom remarked that the rule
was that when bills are introduced before the
committees are appointed to have such bills
laid on the table and that created unneces-
sary work He therefore moved that the
senate adjourn, but he withdrew the motion
Ten porarily to permit Mr.. Plumb to offer a
resolution calling on the commissioners of
agriculture for information as to whether
any person in the employment of that de-
partment, making experiments as to the
manufacture of sugar from sorghum had
obtained or applied for a patent for patents
connected with such manufacture, and grow
ing out of such experiments. This resolu-
ton was adopted.
Mr.. Farwell asked his COLLEAGUES to with
draw his motion so as to allow him to intro
duce bill to perpetuate the national bank
system. Mr.. Cullom declined, and at 1926
the senate adjourned.

The Coal Famine

LEAvENwoRTH, KAN, December 12.-Dep-
uty United States Marshal Charles Currier,
who has travelled much about the western
part of the state during the past two weeks,
says that the condition of the people so far
as fuel is concerned is truly pitiable. Coal
is not to be obtained at any price, and many
cases of actual suffering are reported every
where he went. The last cold wave exhsust
ed what little supply they had, and should
another follow soon none can estimate the
misery that will ensue and possibly
death. In the majority of cases
where there is such scarcity
it is partially the fault of the railroad COM
panies and dealers. The latter did not or
der coal until late in the fall, then the mines
were not of sufficient capacity to supply or.
ders. The railroad company say that they
would be cut short if all the dealers were
supplied, and by one pretext or another
failed to deliver coal to the dealers, but put
such restrictions and rates upon it that the
miners were compelled to furnish them in
advance. Their supply ia not limited, but
they have boarded it up to the detriment
and suffering of thousands of people who
have settled on the prairies of western and
southern Kansas

Sustains the Petition.

WASHINGTON, D. c., December 9.-Act-
ing Secretary Muldrow to-day rendered a
decision on the petition of FL. r. elise and
others asking that the attorney general be
requested to institute suit to set aside the
patents issued the Union Pacific Railway
company for about 100000 acres of land,
lying contiguous to Denver, Col. The land
in question lies within quadrant
formed by the Kansas Pacific rail-
way extending, west from Denver
and the Cheyenne branch of the Union Pa
cific extending south from Denver. The
petition declares that the lands in question
lie outside the railroad grants. The acting
secretary sustains the petition and directs
the commissioner of the general land office
to make formal demand on the railroad
company for a reconveyance of the land.
